Two Rivers Rendezvous
July 21, 2015

The Two Rivers Rendezvous was held over the weekend,
hosted by the Kootenai Muzzleloaders. The Rendezvous is
a gathering of folks interested in the 1800s Rocky
Mountain West, and it normally features black powder
rifle and pistol shooting as well as archery, 'hawks and
knives. The hot weather in June and July, however,
precluded shooting so participants were limited to non-
shooting events and attending various demonstrations
scheduled for the weekend in lieu of shooting.

The weather and fire restrictions had an impact on
participation, as only 38 people had registered as of
Saturday afternoon. Although it was a quiet weekend,
participants were still able to enjoy the company of
their friends in the beautiful setting of Fawn Creek
campground.

Authentic clothing and equipment of the period are always
featured at the Rendezvous, and visitors are welcome to
attend and get a glimpse of what life was like as the
area was being settled.
